THE WEEK IN REVIEW: AUGUST 29-SEPTEMBER 4, 2021

“NO BUSINESS WHICH PAYS LESS THAN LIVING WAGES TO ITS WORKERS HAS ANY RIGHT TO CONTINUE IN THIS COUNTRY. BY LIVING WAGES, I MEAN MORE THAN A BARE SUBSTANCE LEVEL. I MEAN THE WAGES OF A DECENT LIVING.”
Then US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, circa 1932.

"THOSE WHO DO NOT LEARN FROM HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT."—First person to say this unconfirmed.

AM😷NGST EVENTS AROUND THE W🌍RLD THIS PAST WEEK…
*As the pandemic rages onefforts to vaccinate the world against COVID continue. (There are 8/EIGHT seperate links in this item.)
*The state of the world, as of September 4, 2021.
*REALLY??? You own a shape???
*September 7 is the 85th anniversary of Popeye’s father Poopdeck Pappy’s first appearance in the Thimble Theatre comic strip.

*Evacuations are scheduled to continue past August 31! (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)

THE TERRORIST REPORT…
*The Free Choice E-zine does not support terrorism, no matter what the “cause” or alleged “justification”. Thus we will only be posting news items in this section whenever terrorists are brought to justice.

THE CLIMATE CHANGE CHRONICLES…🌐

😒PASSING PARADE…
*Actor Ed Asner (The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Lou Grant, and SO much more) has taken his last bow on life’s stage.
*Actor Eddie Paskey (the original Star Trek and a lot of other 1960’s television) has taken his last bow on life’s stage.
*Famed Watercolorist Philip Jamison is no longer with us.
*Famed TV Weatherman Willard Scott, also accredited with creating the Ronald McDonald character, has taken his last bow on life’s stage.

WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA…
THE BORDER WALL-KIDS-IMMIGRATION ISSUES…
*“President” Trump declared a “national emergency” to build his border wall, separating families upon apprehension. President Joseph Biden nullified the emergency, but other matters pertaining to these issues still have to be dealt with.
NOTE: While we are doing our best to provide coverage, the above is a serious, ongoing issue. Especially since no one has yet to fully discuss the health and safety of all the “detainees” as well as the various costs under Donald Trump of separating families and who is truly responsible for the deaths of FOUR “detainees” (known to date), let alone if anyone might actually be making a profit from this situation.
CAPITAL CHAOS: JANUARY 6, 2021>AFTERMATH
POLITICALLY…
SOCIAL (IN)JUSTICE…
😷THE US VERSUS COVID-19…
IT’S FACT CHECK TIME!
MEANWHILE, IN CONGRESS…
ELSEWHERE…
*Of course the legal and economic battles to this have already begun. But how will it all play out politically??? (There are 3/THREE separate links in this item.)
*September 11 is unfortunately the 20th anniversary of the cowardly terrorist attacks on US soil, including the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and the crashing of United 93.
*September 8 is the 100th anniversary of the first Miss America (Margaret Gorman) being crowned.
πŸ˜€AND FINALLY, SOME GOOD NEWS…


THE FREE CHOICE E-ZINE WOULD LIKE TO THANK ITS LOYAL READERSHIP (and their bots?) FOR GRANTING US 18,455 PAGE VIEWS IN AUGUST 2021!
